Nothing more ridiculous than the OP asking for an opinion between two helmets and then every ...... chiming in with whatever helmet they wear.

To answer your question Chud I like the Sole Luna the best.
 
The Sole Luna appears to better suit your gear and bike's color. If enhanced visibility is also an objective, there is no question of which one to go with. I am very much a fan of the Tartaruga design, though.

I recently picked up a carbon Pista and completely agree with your performance assessment. Incredible aerodynamics, excellent ventilation, and outstanding vision. I'm sure the Corsa is an incredible lid.

Safe riding.

HAHAHAHAHA... this seriously made me chuckle, partially due to the fact that you utilized "......" and I am partial to hats, regardless of where worn.

:rolleyes:

Nice! I really want the pista but in the soleluna graphic. Unfortunately, no DOT version is available here in the states and not sure about laws for track days in the US but pretty sure you need a DOT sticker (please let me know if I am wrong on this!!!)

My heart says turtle...(I even have a turtle tat) but the soleluna is so sexy.

I hate decisions... first i had to figure out the 899/1199 - now this? #whatsab1tchtodo? (yes, I realize that hashtag won't work)

I would go with the Nolan N104 in white...

I like both...but not with this color bike or outfit.

If I had to choose I'd go with Sole Luna as it is necessarily thematic and others would not be looking for more turtle stuff on the outfit.

So I have an Arai lid and am getting a hotspot on the forehead. It is definitely my size and have even tried the larger cheek pads but still too much room in the cheeks and forehead pressure.

Enter AGV...

So got the chance to ride with the pista and the corsa and I am in love. However, I have gone from the plain carbon pista, to the corsa turtle and now at the soleluna corsa. Not going to provide a review here but just going to say aerodynamics are amazing (better than Shoei, Arai for me at least) with no head bobbing even at 110mph. My Arai would start at 70ish. Venting is SUPERB and love that it does not look 5 sizes too big like the Shoei.

Anyway... I love these two graphics the most. Can't decide what looks better with the new jacket and bike. Please weigh in!!!

Definitely the first helmet. What colour to you plan on painting your bike though? :p

Yeah then you can paint it afterwards! Fun, fun, fun! :p

But it matches the bike perfectly... white with black and some red thin stripes... :cool:

I have the graphite version. Very pleased with it.

I would post photos, but being a newbie, I can't...

Maybe it was a polite way of saying "neither", buddy. Now that it is a feminine question, it is a little more obvious. ;)

Both look good, not so keen on the green.
I have Arais, marushin And AGV
Arai the heaviest and tightest fit bit too tight I have xs
The agv is light and well vented but the carbon marushin is the lightest I have ever felt when I say as light as a feather ...any one who picks it up is like wow!! But the marushin is not as well vented but I hear my music better...
Choices choices, changed the visor for black on the marushin looks good paid £210 for helmet new!!!!!
 
I like the Sun styled graphics better .. but why are you looking at only the entry level ones ??

Unless you have personally seen/used the bell star and like it - I would ask you to skip it. The shell looks huge. Imagine a slim body with a huge helmet - it just looks awkward but hey if protection/function is what you strive for then by all means go for it.

I would suggest the RS-1 though. It has an amazing liner a smaller profile and as good as the star lineup.
 
I own a Arai Corsair V and 2 Bell star Carbons!!
I use my Bells for the track.. and the Aria for the street..
Bell all the way
